"Born to Try" is a song by Australian recording artist and songwriter Delta Goodrem, written by Audius Mtawarira and produced by Ric Wake for her debut studio album ''Innocent Eyes'' (2003). The song was released as the first single off the studio album on 8 November 2002 by Epic Records and Daylight Records. It was later featured on her first Japanese compilation album ''Innocent Eyes'' (2006). The song was co-written by her while she was staying at her home in Sydney, Australia for the production of the studio album, as well as written and producing four other songs together. Though many of the public consider this as Goodrem's breakthrough single, it is not her debut single. As the song features instrumentation with a piano, guitars (acoustic and electric) and drums, the song is a low tempo pop song, with influences of piano pop and pop rock. Lyrically, it talks about taking chances and leading your independence. The song was universally praised from music critics, praising Goodrem's vocal abilities and lyrical content. The song is considered as Goodrem's signature song, as the song managed to enter charts around the world, including two number ones in her native Australia and New Zealand. The song also peaked at number three in the United Kingdom, her first single to chart outside of the Oceania. It also charted in many European countries including Ireland, Switzerland and Germany. An accompanying music video was shot for the single, where it featured Goodrem near a lake, then sees her in a more country-side place and also featured her in Helsinki where its effects was presented with timelapse effects. The music video was featured on her video compilation ''Delta'' and was performed at both her commercially successful tours; Visualise Australian Tour and Believe Again Australian Tour. ==Background and composition== Before this song or the album ''Innocent Eyes'' had even commenced, when she was 15, she got signed a record deal with Sony Music and began work on an album of pop-dance songs including the unsuccessful debut single "I Don't Care". The album and proposed second single "A Year Ago Today" were pushed aside as a result, allowing Goodrem and Sony to re-evaluate her future musical direction. The song was included on the tracklist on her third studio album ''Delta'' (2007) as a bonus track. Then in 2002, Goodrem starred on Australian TV series ''Neighbours'' as a shy school girl and aspiring singer Nina Tucker. The song was eventually performed on an episode on Neighbours. The song was co-written by Goodrem along with songwriter Audius Mtawarira at her home in Sydney. The two originally met in 2001 and Goodrem states "Audius and I got on really well and someone at the record company suggested we write together. He came out to our house, mum made some lunch and we wrote four songs. 'Born To Try' was the last one. We just naturally clicked and there was no pressure so it was just music for music's sake".〔("Delta's Single Out Monday" ). ''Deltagoodrem.com.au''.
